Ways to shield from public eye

I will be doing some tattoo shots in the woods at my house and am wondering if any of you have any suggestions of ways to shield the shoot. The meadow opens out to the road and some of the best posing areas are at the far end of the meadow. While the road is pretty private, some kids do walk along the road from time to time.

Bring a helper or two to alert you when people are coming.  If it's a public area, you really can't block it off, and setting up screens or something may be impractical. 
Are you shooting these nude?  I can't see why you would be bothered by people passing through otherwise?

It's more for the comfort of those I'm shooting, since they will be pretty uncovered (naughty bits covered, though). It's in my own yard, so I can set up shields, etc., but don't know what to use.

If it's far enough from the road yuou might be surprised at what people won't notice.

people will notice a big screen. Plus a big screen is also really hard to use if its windy. If you can, ask the model to bring a lookout (this way they will bring someone that they won't mind seeing them undressed)

also a good screen that nobody would pay attention to is an SUV or van.

another thing is the field. if there is any slope use it to block the street.

Yeah people will wonder what's going on behind a screen.  Bob has the right idea about a vehicle.  If you can drive it into position, that is.

Oooo...my husband and I both drive SUVs because of the amount of gear we have to haul to the art fairs! Great idea. Smiley

Are they big black SUV's?  What are you really up to?  This sounds like something straight out of a movie Smiley.
